A House Is Not a Home

This African American gay love story set in Brooklyn's hip hop community is a "sexy, romantic soaper . . . sure to please present fans and garner more" ( Booklist). In this final chapter in James Earl Hardy's groundbreaking B-Boy Blues series, Mitchell "Little Bit" Crawford and Raheim "Pooquie" Rivers are all grown up. Mitchell is a stay-at-home dad renovating his dream house, writing, and raising his godson and half-sister in Brooklyn's up-and-coming Fort Greene neighborhood. He's fairly happy, but he can't help feeling that something—or someone—is missing from his life. Fresh from rehab for a gambling addiction, Raheim has a new lease on life, but it's precarious — his career as an actor has stalled, he hasn't seen his son in years, and the short-lived sexual trysts that punctuated his life no longer satisfy him. Hell-bent on change, Raheim has finally figured out who he wants to be with forever. But will Mitchell give Raheim the second chance he so desperately wants?

Lynn Harris, New York Times best-selling author of What Becomes of the Brokenhearted "I have been a fan of his work from his very first novel." —J.L.
